4. All Rights Reserved Alcatel-Lucent 2006, ##### General presentation Develop algorithms and solutions necessary for the deployment of a network of "small cells" (SCN for Small Cells Network). The theoretical studies target define models necessary for the description of radio channels & set up algorithms exploiting the diversity of these networks (users, channels, interference). The originality and the ambition of the project Exploit i nterference between cells for an optimal use of radio resources. The algorithms based on the most advanced developments in terms of distribution, game theory or reinforcement learning. Architecture and the algorithms necessary for the proper functioning of the collection network of a SCN will be provided. Validation simulations and industrial development platform develop a prototype of a base station of SCN. This experimental approach will validate the industrial value of the concept of SCN. The consortium is composed of two major industrial groups in the world of telecommunications, 3 PME and 6 research organizations (public and private).
